Death Grips – The Money Store

It was 2012 and I was driving home one night when I heard the track Get Got by Death Grips on a hip hop community radio show at the local station we volunteered at. Extra bonus the band featured drummer Zach Hill. I was sold! I had it on repeat for weeks after and picked up the vinyl from Clarity. That electronic Hip Hop cross over was big then – thinking POS and Clipping both of which my partner and their friends were really into at the time. We thrashed tracks from this on our radio show and party playlists. This sound seems to be having another resurgence. Or maybe it never went away. Admittedly, I have not spun the whole album for some years. I was reminded today it’s a lot in one sitting and totally surprised my partner with the blast of synth and drums when they walked in the door from the food shopping.

The art work by Sua Yoo is cool as fuck.
